Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at TCS.
Senior Java Developer
For experienced folks applying to TCS, the interview process usually starts with a technical test, which could be online or written. After that, there's a technical interview where they'll dig into your knowledge of the specific field you're applying for, check your coding skills, and talk about your past projects. Finally, an HR interview happens to see how well you communicate, your general attitude, and if you'd be a good fit for the company.
- Can you explain basic coding concepts?
- What are loops and how do they work?
- Tell me about arrays.
Junior Java Developer
The interview journey started with an Assessment Round where they tested my problem-solving and analytical skills with aptitude tests, logical reasoning, and verbal ability questions. Then, a Coding Round followed, which tested my programming skills, requiring me to solve coding problems in a set time using languages like Java, C++, or Python. Finally, there was an HR Round, which was more of a conversation about my personality, communication skills, and how well I'd fit with the company culture. It felt like a positive interaction.
- Discuss Java OOPs, multithreading, and SOLID principles.
Java Full Stack Developer
Had a Coderpad.io round where we did live coding. They asked basic questions about Java, Sql, and Linux, and also about React, asking me to describe how I've used them in past projects if I had prior work experience.
- Live coding round on Coderpad.io focusing on Java.
